A ROMANTIC TWIST
Soft, Italian velvet makes the fully upholstered Series 7™ particularly luxurious. The combination of the design and velvet upholstery strikes a delicate balance between formality and simplicity, form and function, past and future. It can be used as a noteworthy accent chair or simple, luxurious seating for modern dining. The possibilities are endless.
The Series 7™ designed by Arne Jacobsen is by far the most sold chair in the history of Fritz Hansen and perhaps also in furniture history. The pressure moulded veneer chair is a further development of the classic Ant™ chair.
Series 7™ comes in different veneers and finishes. All chairs are made of pressure moulded sliced veneer.
The Velvet Edition is available in 3 vibrant colours: Misty Rose, Autumn Red and Grey Blue. Powder coated steel legs in Brown Bronze compliment the velvet upholstery, adding subtlety and depth.
